I personally find it deeply distressing to watch "90 Day Fiancé" on the TLC channel, as it brings back painful memories of a dear friend who was a victim of domestic violence and tragically taken from us at the young age of 28. The show, produced by Sharp Entertainment, features Angela Deem, who, for years, has incessantly subjected her partner, now husband, Michael llesanmi to physical and mental abuse - all for the world to see.

Domestic violence is a serious issue that affects 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men in the United States (NCADV). Platforms like TLC that have millions of viewers should not be glamorizing or brushing aside this problem in the name of entertainment. Michael's suffering at the hands of Angela is neither entertaining nor educational. In fact, it is a stark contrast to TLC's statement of providing 'heartwarming and heart-tugging programming'.

We are calling on Sharp Entertainment and TLC to take a step against domestic violence by removing Angela Deem from "90 Day Fiancé". This action will not only send a strong message that domestic violence is inexcusable but also show respect to countless victims who have suffered like Michael, and my dear, departed friend. Protect the integrity of your programming and the millions of viewers who trust you to provide responsible content. Please, sign this petition to demand Angela Deem's removal from "90 Day Fiancé".
